For those interested in the latest, EveryMac.com's Mac Upgrade Q&As now cover additional upgrade options.

For those mostly interested in vintage Macs, EveryMac.com has painstakingly mended hundreds of links across the site that were no longer active, replacing them with updated versions or links to archived copies courtesy of the Internet Archive whenever possible.

EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup has been updated with additional identifiers for Macs and devices from hands-on inspection and submissions by helpful readers. Thank you very much to those who contribute info. It's appreciated always.

If you bought, or buy, a new Mac, iPhone, or iPad, please get in touch and send in its serial number and other identifiers. Non-personal information may be added to EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup to help with model identification and differentiation. Thank you.
